A cow miraculously survived an electric shock after biting into a power line in northern China.

Shocking CCTV footage filmed in Changchun City in Jilin Province on October 4 shows a cow, upon chomping down on the wire, getting struck by a surge of electricity that sent it tumbling to the ground.

The electrified bovine's moans of distress reverberated across the pasture and drew a crowd of its fellow cattle.

According to the farmer, the power line bitten by the cow resulted in the subsequent electric discharge, causing the incident. He took immediate action, elevating the wires to a safer height to prevent any future bovine brush with danger.

10月4日，吉林长春，农场内一头牛出于好奇，不停地去咬头上的一根电线，结果当场被电击倒地，嗷嗷直叫，这一幕还吸引了其他牛的围观，所幸没事儿，牛自己站了起来，并且带着恐惧和迷惑后退走远。
据牛主人介绍，当时牛把电线咬破了，导致漏电后将其电击倒地，事后他已经把电线高度抬升，以避免再发生这样的事儿。
